Andrew King, Director of Performance Research, D-Wave, will speak at IQT Canada.
Dr. Andrew King is Director of Performance Research at D-Wave, where he has led groundbreaking research in quantum annealing and optimization since 2013. His research background is in graph theory, where he contributed to the proof of the long-standing Lovasz-Plummer conjecture, following a variety of results in graph colouring and decomposition during his doctorate at McGill University. More recently, his focus has been on experimental realization of programmable quantum spin systems. His latest research, which demonstrated the first quantum critical speedup in a programmable spin-glass, was recently published in Nature.
IQT Canada 2023 is the tenth global conference and exhibition in the highly successful Inside Quantum Technology series.

This event is Canada’s Quantum Computing Event, focusing on Ecosystems for Quantum Readiness. A number of vertical topics encompassing more than 30 panels and talks from over 80 speakers will provide attendees with a deep understanding on state-of-the-art developments of the future quantum ecosystems as well as the current impact of quantum computing technologies.
The conference brings together corporate management, entrepreneurs, end users, technology providers, infrastructure partners, researchers and investors who are working on the current future developments of the quantum ecosystem. IQT Canada is organized by 3DR Holdings, IQT Research, INTRIQ, and the Governments of both Canada and Quebec. The June conference will be an “in-person” event to ensure maximum networking and discussion and will take place at Centre Mont-Royal in Montréal (Québec), Canada.
